Martin SP Lifespan Phosphor Bronze Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings offer a bright, rich, and warm tone. Top artists use this 92/8 composition for live performances and studio recording due to its consistent, slightly warmer tone out of the box.

Martin & Co. designs and manufactures the strings themselves. Like their guitars, each string is made with patience, care, and precision with only the highest quality materials producing strings with exacting tone and superior performance. Not only are their packaging materials minimized and 100% recyclable, but the envelopes reduce the tarnishing effect on the strings.

These are the best strings you can get and I've been playing for years for hours and hours a day! Sound incredible, play incredible, last forever. I usually have sweaty hands and somehow these guys do not rust! It's incredible. Best Strings I ever bought and this deal of 3 for 19.99 with a genuine leather wallet is amazing! I am very happy and on my way to order to more!
I recommend these to anyone. Don't even question it, Best strings on the market with the best deal.

I just installed these Custom Light strings on my Martin OMC guitar. Up to this point, I have been using their Light Lifespan strings.
I am amazed at the difference in sound.
These are not strings for strumming, so if that's what you want, stick with the lights.
But the OMC guitars are fingerpicking guitars, and these strings are the perfect match for them.
Each note is very crisp and bright.
And the sustain seems to go on forever.
You would think that the slight difference in thickness, .011 comaired to .012, wouldn't make much difference, but it does.
What I love about fingerpicking, is the amount of control that you have with both hands.
I can actually dig into the strings, for more attack and snap.
I love em, and you will too.

Pros:

everything

Cons:

nothing

I give Martin Kudos for using Cleartones coating on these strings. I now use them for my Taylor 314ce. Martin SP Lifetime Stings with the Cleartone coating sound much better than the Elixir strings I was using and last longer. I have tried just about every brand on the market and for the price, these are top shelf..

Pros:

Great price and last a long time.. These strings sustain as well as project much louder.
